"There's a lady on the ground" – Scenes of Black Friday Video Game Shopping Madness

Scenes of people shopping for video games today on Black Friday—specifically at Wal-Marts across the country—don’t resemble shopping as much as they resemble feeding frenzies. Why they do it like this is beyond me.

This kind of thing is a great argument for downloading games or at least ordering them online.


Here’s the video referenced in the headline. There’s a lady on the ground. She’s ok, so the shopping continues.

There are tons of videos like this on YouTube. This isn’t one store’s approach.

It’s how these stores sell older and/or discounted games to kick off their holiday sales. (Turn your volume down for this one.)

Hopefully someone got something good. Otherwise, what’s the point? (Turn your volume down for this one.)

Happy Black Friday, everyone.
